Hi all,
Got a brake problem with a 1986 90. I know it is my fault but have no idea how to sole it!
I recently upgraded to stainless steel brake hoses, new drums & shoes (new springs too), and new pads on the front.
Having made the changes I used a pressure bleeding system. Lots of air and much crud was removed. About a litre and a half of fluid passed through the system.
The brakes are working fine - but the pedal, when pressed 'hard' pulses. I assume that this is air. Bled the system again but no air seen. Still pulsing so bled again. This time with lots of pumps of the brake pedal as well as the pressure bleeder. Again no air removed - just good clean fluid running through the system.
Brake pedal still 'pulses' under heavy braking - Land Rover stops with wheels locked and in a straight line. Light braking has no pulsing effect.
I'd appreciate suggestions on how to remedy this problem.....
Regards
Richard
